General
There are minor editorial changes globally based on review from Ian,
Eric, and Judy Brewer.
* Changed Braille to braille based on comments from Eric and Judy.
Abstract
Updated to focus on purpose and scope of document. Scope is expanded
on in section 1.2.
Introduction
* Important! Section 1.2 has been rewritten. It is no longer
essentially a summary of general design principles (though those
are still there). It is now a discussion of the scope of the
document and some assumptions that affected the choice and
elimination of some requirements.
* Titles of 1.1 and 1.2 now include "user agent" before "design"
Guidelines
* Guideline 6: Some prose changed for clarification about w3c
process.
* Guidelines 5, 8: Prose edited after redistribution of old section
1.2 text (principles).
* Old Guideline 9 deleted. Checkpoints redistributed per [7]12
October teleconference.

Checkpoints
* 1.4: Note after edited to improve readability.
* 1.5: Clarified per [8]12 October teleconference.
* 2.5: To note after 2.5 state that empty text eq is valid in some
cases.
* 2.6: New requirement for configuration per [9]12 October
teleconference. Also reworded accordingly.

* 3.1: Edited note.
* 4.1: Added note about SVG per [10]10 October teleconf.
* 4.5: Editorial changes to wording of checkpoint text.
* 5.4: Editorial changes to help readability of parenthetical.
* 9.5: Redundant checkpoint text with 9.4 deleted per [11]10
October
teleconf.
* 8.4: Minor edits for clarification.
* 8.7: Edited according to [12]proposal from Ian per [13]12 October
teleconference.
* Deleted "automatic satisfaction" from four checkpoints since it
was confusing and unnecessary since the checkpoints already
express minimal requirements.

Conformance
* Text in section 2 (before priorities) changed to explain minimal
requirements better.
* Added "Basic" label to content label sets per [14]10 October
teleconf. Some other cleanup to label set descriptions.
* Now, for conformance, the UA must implement some keyboard API,
even when there's no std system API per [15]12 October
teleconference.
* The phrase "conformance logo" now appears in the document to help
people find icon/logo.

HTTP 1.1.
* Edits to text element, etc. based on several Eric comments.

API
moved to definition of API.

term
